Please provide a lot more details of what your setup is.
You mention kde, gnome and windows 10 all in the same sentence.

What software is installed in the VM what sofware is installed on the physical hardware?

If you want comments on your XML you will need to share that XML.

This works for me:

# Join the disk group and relogin
sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} disk
sudo loginctl terminate-user ${USER}

# Attach the disk to the VM
virsh list --all
virsh shutdown VM
virsh attach-disk VM /dev/sdb vdb --persistent
virsh start VM

Be sure to install the VirtIO drivers in Windows.
